[Faolan is definitely not the sort of person to use the network, not even to respond to it never mind to post to it. But desperate times call for desperate measures, and certainly this is a desperate time indeed.

How do people even usually address posts on this thing? He goes through the last month or so of them before giving up and just flying by the seat of his pants.

You don't even know how many times he rewrote this thing in the first place.]


Let's say, hypothetically speaking, that there was something quite expensive that you had wanted very much, and that someone purchased that something for you when they really didn't have to. Let's say that you could never hope to come up with the money to pay them back in full, but you would like to do something comparable for them for the holidays.

What would you do in such a situation?


[Help him, Retrospec, you're his only hope he desperately needs some advice here.]

Yes, I'd say that we are quite... Close.

[Come on, Minako, can you honestly say you haven't guessed who he's talking about by this point. If you haven't by now, he's fairly certain you will eventually.]

And it wasn't like that, I. It was for my birthday, you see. He'd given it to me as a present. And I could wait for his to come up to give him a good present in return, but there's Christmas coming up now instead, so I'd just thought... You know. Why not, yeah?

I'll try to look into what he might like and let you know. Are there any particular days that might work better for you? And. Is there a chance you might know of somewhere we might be able to practice...? I can bring the ingredients, I just.

[Can't practice cooking for Laurent in front of Laurent himself...]

[She's got an idea, yes...she remembers Halloween night. But she's not gonna say anything in public!]

first of all why didn't you tell me when your birthday was!! (￣3￣)

second of all I'm busy up until the 17th with ReVA things but after that we can meet any day you like. My apartment's kitchen will be fine. You can see Korochan again, too

[reticence]

[That's okay. You can tease him all about it later on]

Oh, it. Was in November? Really it isn't. That big a deal. I mean I'm sorry if I didn't say. I didn't really tell anyone, he just asked.

I'd like that. To see Korochan, and to practice with you. If you'd have me. I'm sure we could work something out with our schedules. I'll text you when I know more for certain?

[complementing]

I'll have to remember for next year, then (￣3￣) what day in November?

yes that sounds good!

added bonus that I won't have to track you down for Christmas present giving, I'll just give it to you then~

[reticence]

Ah, it's November 8th. Though you know it's only fair to tell me yours in return then, yeah?

An added bonus for both of us. And it will give me enough time to think of something for you in return as well.

March 5th ヾ(๑ゝڡ◕๑)ゝ

I'm looking forward to it!
